A subdomain is part of a web address that's under the main domain name, such as name.example.com. Actually, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain given that the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every single subdomain could have its own site and records and can even be hosted using a different provider if you wish to use a specific feature that is not offered by your current service provider. One example for using a subdomain is if you have a business site along with an online store under a subdomain where clients can acquire your products. Additionally, you can have a forum in which they can talk about the products and by employing subdomains rather than subfolders you will avoid any risk of all sites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping your websites separated is less risky in the event of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Shared Web Hosting

Our shared web hosting plans will permit you to set up numerous subdomains for every domain hosted inside your account without any difficulty. Provided that the main domain address is added, it takes two mouse clicks to create a subdomain and choose what folder it'll open (if different from the default one), set customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, plus much more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and administration. By right-clicking on any one of them and by using instant access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that specific subdomain. We haven't set a limit for the total amount of subdomains which you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

You are able to create as many subdomains as you wish with any of our semi-dedicated plans as we have not set a maximum limit for this feature. The Hepsia website hosting CP will permit you to add a new subdomain with a few clicks and you can access a number of advanced features during the process - modify the default access folder, pick the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones which are provided in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and more. Even if you set up a great number of subdomains, you will be able to keep track of all of them with ease as they are going to be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For any of them, you can even access the web site files or check out logs and usage stats using quick access buttons.
